Has it not rained where you are? Everything is soft here. I’ve drilled 2 pasture fields this year for 2 separate people with weaving gd. One is up but getting a hard time with flee beetle and other is just emerging. There’s not much pasture land that is that hard because it’s got such a mass of fibrous roots

Is it hard through compaction or dry weather?

What drill are you using?
Moore unidrill
for that drill.... reasonably dry is ok but still needs good conditions bit of 'workable soil' for want of a better way to put it, that will fall out of the side of the disc slot and settle around the seed, he wont want it to be too sticky or wet though . especially if it dries out after wards.
but having said that Well Its cheap enough seed (?), ....,just go for it.
